Interesting. Could be. The specific problem came up on an Intel NUC which
uses Intel integrated graphics.

Re: [Pharo-users] X11 options on Ubuntu VM / Athens rendering problems

2017-11-06 Thread J.F. Rick
Just a quick follow up: We've found that if we are in fullscreen Pharo mode
on Linux and hit the ALT button twice, the Athens-based rendering speeds up
significantly. The first ALT brings the Unity launcher to the foreground.
The second ALT bring fullscreen Pharo back to the foreground. I'm not sure
why this makes Athens rendering faster but it does. Perhaps that offers a
clue as to what is slowing Pharo down in fullscreen on Linux.

Re: [Pharo-users] Writing "powerpoint" like presentations in Pharo?

2017-11-04 Thread J.F. Rick
I've often used Pharo and Squeak for presentations, particularly when
interactive widgets can get me beyond typical presentation stuff. The main
hurdle I see in getting a really awesome Pharopoint is that I'd like to
have a presenter interface that is different for me the presenter than what
the audience sees. Here are some things that come to mind:
(1) Allow me to keep my higher resolution 16x10 aspect ratio screen and
present to a 4x3 monitor.
(2) Allow me to keep presenter notes that people can't see.
(3) Allow me a preview of upcoming slides and to jump around.
(4) Make my cursor on the presentation leave a trail, so I can highlight
things with my mouse.
>From a programming Pharo programming perspective, this stuff isn't hard.
Where the rubber hits the road is that Pharo needs to interact with the
operating system to set up the two different decoration-less windows,
displaying one on the projector and keeping the other one on the laptop. In
Powerpoint and the like, getting into this mode is just a button click
away. Once that functionality is just a few lines of Smalltalk away, I'm
sure we'll see really interesting versions of Pharopoint coming soon after.

Just my two cents,

Jeff

Hi Clement and and Stef,

thanks for sharing. The video looks cool and it seems like a
high-performance approach. Unfortunately, it doesn't seem to be working in
Linux. I'm attaching the Pharo debug file, but it seems like the Handler
being OSNullWindowHandle indicates a problem. I'm also not sure that this
approach would allow me to do fullscreen apps. I noticed that your video
shows a title bar in MacOS.

Hi Stef,

since I'm only doing Athens rendering, it might be possible to do a native
window implementation. That said, I don't know how to get started with
that. Documentation seems to be hard to find. The last time I saw any work

[Pharo-users] X11 options on Ubuntu VM / Athens rendering problems

2017-09-22 Thread J.F. Rick
I'm running a fullscreen Pharo application on Ubuntu and I've noticed that
Athens rendering gets way worse (maybe 10 updates per second) when I switch
to fullscreen mode from inside Pharo. Ideally, I'd love for that to be
fixed.

In lieu of that, it would be cool if I could just maximize Pharo to the
size of the screen to achieve good performance. Two things stop that: the
Unity application bar and the title-bar. For the former, I can configure
Unity to hide it. I noticed a '-notitle' X11 option when I execute pharo
-help. I've tried using these X11 options and neither -notitle or
-fullscreen seem to have any effect. Here's the command I run:

./bin/pharo --encoding utf8 -vm-display-X11 -fullscreen PATH_TO_IMAGE &

Pharo starts fine but neither option seems to have any effect. I've also
tried this in GNOME, thinking that Unity was the problem. Again, no effect.

Any suggestions?

Jeff


Re: [Pharo-users] Pharo Audio?

2017-05-08 Thread J.F. Rick
Yes, sound support on Linux is not great and probably won't be good until
64-bit. If you are just looking to play an MP3 based on some user action,
you could just try using a command-line MP3 player and then using an
OSProcess to launch it, stop it, etc. It's a bit ugly code but might need
your needs.

Re: [Pharo-users] Retina support in Pharo

2016-05-18 Thread J.F. Rick
My guess is that retina support through Athens rendering and 64-bit are
critical to greater adoption of Pharo for several reasons:
(1) First impressions matter greatly. If I try to get someone into Pharo
and the first thing they see is a pixelated screen, they will have an
immediate bad reaction. My students believed that Pharo was a toy language
because of the pixelated rendering. Even when I explained why, I'm not sure
they believed me (sure, prof, we believe you). The interface being slow
also gives the impression that the entire system is slow. So, speed
improvements from Spur are less tangible. For most newcomers, interface
speed = system speed.
(2) One of the first things newcomers will want to do with a new system is
some sort of graphical user interface. Pharo's morphic is quite nice but
the BitBlt rendering is off putting. So, even if newcomers buy that there
are reasons for the rendering being not great, they will likely conclude
that it isn't a system for them.
(3) The vast majority of OSes are 64-bit and 32-bit packages are getting
deprecated. So, even if there are nice ways to interface with the outside
world, they are being held back. So, very small things, like sound on
Ubuntu, don't work. It's not really worth fixing that until Pharo is
64-bit. Again, it looks like Pharo is behind the curve, rather than ahead
of it.

Now, that stated, I understand why things are the way they are. There are
limited resources and there are things that take priority. In addition,
there is the tension between Pharo as an engine for research ideas (roughly
equates to the things where Pharo is ahead of the curve) and Pharo as a
general purpose environment (most notable in places where Pharo is behind
the curve).

Pharo5 is a major accomplishment and I am excited by it. It is awesome what
was accomplished. I have faith in the leadership in setting priorities and
great appreciation for those putting in the time. My point in posting this
is not to criticize past development or priorities but just to make the
case that these two things on the horizon (retina support, 64-bit) are
important to my use of Pharo and how newcomers will view the system. I wish
I could contribute but the VM things are out of my zone of competence.

Cheers,

Jeff

Re: [Pharo-users] Athens question - #openInSceneView

2014-02-14 Thread J.F. Rick
Incomplete, though EllipseMorph would be quite easy to implement. You would
have to implement drawOnAthensCanvas: on EllipseMorph. It is currently just
inheriting that from Morph.

 If I understand correctly #openInSceneView wraps a morph in an
 Athens scene. I tried some examples:

  Smalltalk ui icons configIcon asMorph openInSceneView
  BorderedMorph new openInSceneView

 First two work, but the third:

  EllipseMorph new openInSceneView

 brought up a yellow morph - but as rectangle not as ellipse
 like in EllipseMorph new openInWorld.

 Havent looked deeper. Incomplete or a bug?

 Thx
